Overview Instructions

Weighted Guidelines (DD-1547)
This is a short write-up on completing a DD-1547, Weighted Guidelines. The top half of
the DD-1547, line 13 (material) through line 20 (total cost) is self-explanatory. Data enter
the information on lines 13 through 17 and line 19. Do not data enter information on lines
18 and 20 as formulas are located in these lines.
To complete a DD-1547 (Weighted Guidelines) you need to utilize the DFARS PART
215.404-71. DFARS Part 215.404-71-1 provides general guidance on the weighted
guidelines method, which focuses on four profit factors: a) performance risk, b) contract
type risk, c) facilities capital employed, and d) cost efficiency. You have to go through
each part of the DFARS that addresses each of the four items to complete the DD-1547.
a. DFARS 215.404-71-2 Performance risk. You utilize this section of the DFARS to
complete lines 21, 22, and 23 of the DD-1547. This factor addresses the contractor's
degree of risk in fulfilling the contract requirements. The performance risk (line 23) is a
composite of two parts, technical risk (line 21) and management/cost control (line 22).
Technical risk concerns the technical uncertainties of performance while
management/cost control is concerned with the degree of management effort necessary to
ensure contract compliance and cost control. DFARS 215.404-71-2(b) provides a table
(from the DD-1547) of how the composite performance risk is determined, and the
corresponding profit objective, with explanations just below the table. You need to
determine a value from the table in DFARS Part 215.404-71-2(c). The values apply to a
standard contract or a technology incentive contract. The technology incentive applies only toOverview
the technical factor and not the management\cost control factor. Most contracts will utilize values
for a standard contract. There is a designated range for the standard contract that is between
3% to 7%, with a mid-value at 5%. Therefore, 5% is the normal value. The lower the
technical and management/cost control risk, the lower the percentage figure. The higher
the technical and management/cost control risk, the higher the percentage figure to use.
Notice that G&A expense is included in the base (total costs) to determine the profit
objective. Also notice that line 23, the value for Performance Risk is a composite of
technical and management/cost control factors. The value for Performance Risk is
multiplied against the total costs to determine a profit objective for Performance Risk.
b. DFARS 215.404-71-3 Contract type risk and working capital employed. You
utilize this section of the DFARS to complete lines line 23 and 24 of the DD-1547. The
contract type risk factor focuses on the degree of cost risk accepted by the contractor
under different contract types. The working capital adjustment is an adjustment added to
the profit objective for contract type risk. The working capital adjustment only applies to
fixed price contracts with progress payments.
Again, DFARS Part 215-404-71-3(b) provides a table (from the DD-1547) of how the
profit objective calculation is made, with explanations just below the table. DFARS Part
215-404-71-3(c) is a table of values to be used based on contract type. Notice that at the
top of the table, firm fixed price, the normal value is 5 and the values decrease as you
move down the table. Why? Because as the contract types are changing, the risk is
shifting from the contractor to the government. As the risk to the contractor decreases, the
profit objective decreases. Therefore, find the corresponding normal value for this type of
contract and utilize it in the DD-1547. DFARS Part 215-404-71-3(d) provides evaluation
criteria.
Again, notice that the value for the Contract Risk is multiplied against total costs to
determine the profit objective for Contract Risk.
For those fixed price contracts that have progress payments (not performance based payments)
utilize the table in DFARS 215.404-71-3 to determine contract length factor. Notice that as the
contract period increases (in months) the contract length factor increases. Why? Because in a firm fixed
contract the risk shifts to the contractor. As the length of contract increases, so does the contractors
risk increases and a concern on the contractor’s cash flow. The interest rate used is the
treasury rate. Again, the cost financed is multiplied by the contract length factor muliplied by
the treasury rate to determine the profit objective for working capital adjustment.
c. DFARS 215-404-71-4 Facilities capital employed. You utilized this section of the
DFARS to complete lines 26, 27, and 28 of the DD-1547. The facilities capital employed
focuses on encouraging and rewarding contractors for capital investments and facilities
that benefit DOD. On lines 26, 27, and 28, under the heading "Enter Amount Employed"
you would need to data enter the data from the DD-1861. DFARS 215.404-71-4(e) shows
lines 26, 27, and 28 of the DD-1547 and how the profit objective is determined.
Notice that there are no assignable values for land and buildings. DFARS 215-404-71-4(f)
is a table that reflects the values for equipment. The table reflects land, buildings, and equipment,
however zero (0) percent is reflected for land and buildings. There is a designated range
of between 10% to 25%, with a mid-value of 17.5%. Therefore, 17.5% is the normal value.
DFARS 215.404-71-4(g) provides the evaluation criteria for determining the value that
should be used.
Again, notice that the assigned value for equipment is multiplied by amount for equipment
derived by the DD-1861 (facilities cost of money) to determine the profit objective.
d. DFARS 215.404-71-5 Cost efficiency factor. You utilized this section to complete
line 29 of the DD-1547. The cost efficiency factor provides an incentive for contractors
to reduce costs. However, if this is a firm fix price contract, the risk is on the contractor
not the government. If the contractor reduces their costs, their profit goes up and it does
not reduce the contract price. Therefore, there is no reason to complete this section of the
DD-1547 for a fixed price contract. Due to the number of factors involved in determining
a cost efficiency, the percentage figure is left to the judgment of the contracting officer,
not to exceed four (4) percent of the total cost objective.
Notice that G&A is included in determining the profit\fee objective but facilities capital
cost of money (FCCM) is not included in determining the profit\fee objective.
e. On line 32 of the DD-1547 the FCCM amount from the DD-1861 needs to be data
entered.
